  • On Bhutanese and Tibetan Dzongs **
    ON BHUTANESE AND TIBETAN DZONGS ** Ingun Bruskeland Amundsen** “Seen from without, it´s a rocky escarpment! Seen from within, it´s all gold and treasure!”1 There used to be impressive dzong complexes in Tibet and areas of the Himalayas with Tibetan influence. Today most of them are lost or in ruins, a few are restored as museums, and it is only in Bhutan that we find the dzongs still alive today as administration centers and monasteries. This paper reviews some of what is known about the historical developments of the dzong type of buildings in Tibet and Bhutan, and I shall thus discuss towers, khars (mkhar) and dzongs (rdzong). The first two are included in this context as they are important in the broad picture of understanding the historical background and typological developments of the later dzongs. The etymological background for the term dzong is also to be elaborated. Backdrop What we call dzongs today have a long history of development through centuries of varying religious and socio-economic conditions. Bhutanese and Tibetan histories describe periods verging on civil and religious war while others were more peaceful. The living conditions were tough, even in peaceful times. Whatever wealth one possessed had to be very well protected, whether one was a layman or a lama, since warfare and strife appear to have been endemic. Security measures * Paper presented at the workshop "The Lhasa valley: History, Conservation and Modernisation of Tibetan Architecture" at CNRS in Paris Nov. 1997, and submitted for publication in 1999. ** Ingun B. Amundsen, architect MNAL, lived and worked in Bhutan from 1987 until 1998.

Analysis of vegetation condition and its relationship with meteorological variables in the Yarlung Zangbo River Basin of China Xianming Han1,2, Depeng Zuo1,2, Zongxue Xu1,2, Siyang Cai1,2, and Xiaoxi Gao1,2 1College of Water Sciences, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, China 2Beijing Key Laboratory of Urban Hydrological Cycle and Sponge City Technology, Beijing 100875, China Correspondence: Depeng Zuo ([email protected]) Received: 31 December 2017 – Accepted: 12 January 2018 – Published: 5 June 2018 Abstract. The Yarlung Zangbo River Basin is located in the southwest border of China, which is of great significance to the socioeconomic development and ecological environment of Southwest China. Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is an important index for investigating the change of vegetation cover, which is widely used as the representation value of vegetation cover. In this study, the NDVI is adopted to explore the vegetation condition in the Yarlung Zangbo River Basin during the recent 17 years, and the relationship between NDVI and meteorological variables has also been discussed. The results show that the annual maximum value of NDVI usually appears from July to September, in which August occupies a large proportion. The minimum value of NDVI appears from January to March, in which February takes up most of the percentage. The higher values of NDVI are generally located in the lower elevation area.

August 2021 Ideale Reisezeit Jan Feb Mär Apr Mai Jun Jul Aug Sep Okt Nov Dez Hinweis: Der Sommer (Juli und August) ist die Hauptreisezeit für die chinesischen Touristen.

Nach einigen Tagen erreichen wir den stahlblauen Manasarovar-See, welcher auf einer Höhe von 4500 Metern liegt. Wir umrunden diesen See und geniessen die verschiedenen Anblicke des heiligen Berges Kailash. Anschliessend reisen wir weiter nach Westen in nur wenig besuchte Regionen. Im ehemaligen Königreich Guge stehen einige der ältesten Zeugen der buddhistischen Kunst. Unsere spannende Weiterfahrt bringt uns durch das Kunlun- Gebirge, über das Hochplateau von Aksai Chin und weiter bis zum Karakorum-Gebirge. Wir durchqueren dabei phantastische und archaische Berglandschaften, bis wir schlussendlich die alte Karawanenstadt Kashgar erreichen.

  • China/Tibet: Unterschiedliche Na- Men Geographischer Orte Und Kenntnisse Der Administrativen Einheiten
    China/Tibet: Unterschiedliche Na- men geographischer Orte und Kenntnisse der administrativen Einheiten Auskunft Adrian Schuster Bern, 2. Dezember 2015 1 Einleitung Die Schweizerische Flüchtlingshilfe hat verschiedene Fragen zur aktuellen Situation, zum Alltag und der Lebenswelt der lokalen Bevölkerung in Tibet erhalten. Diese Auskunft behandelt Fragen zu den unterschiedlichen Namen geographischer Orte, den administrativen Einheiten Tibets sowie den Kenntnissen der lokalen Bevölke- rung dazu. Diese Auskunft basiert auf Expertenauskünften 1 und auf eigenen Recher- chen. 2 Schwierigkeiten bezüglich allgemeingültiger Aussagen Generalisierungen nicht möglich. Nach Angaben verschiedener Expertinnen und Experten zu Tibet können Angaben zu diversen Fragen des Alltags der ti betischen Bevölkerung meist nicht in generalisierender Form gemacht werden. Nach der am 31. März 2015 gemachten Einschätzung von Geoff Barstow 2 von der Otterbein Uni- versität in Westerville USA, kann sich die Situation in den verschiedenen Gebieten sehr stark unterscheiden.3 Die Beantwortung von Fragen zum Alltag sowie der ver- schiedenen Aspekte des Lebens der Tibeterinnen und Tibeter innerhalb des Auto- nomen Gebiets Tibet (AGT) sowie in den Gebieten ausserhalb des AGT ist deshalb äusserst komplex. Diese Angaben machte eine Kontaktperson 4 mit Expertenwissen zu Ost-Tibet am 28. April 2015 aufgrund der vielfältigen regionalen Unterschiede sowie den Unterschieden zwischen den ländlichen und urbanen Gebieten. Eine Ge- neralisierung und Übertragung einzelner Erkenntnisse, die für eine spezifische Re- gion gelten, auf andere Regionen und Provinzen im Autonomen Gebiet Tibet sowie auf die ausserhalb liegenden tibetischen Gebiete, ist laut der Kontaktperson nicht möglich.5 Anne Carolyn Klein, Professorin vom Department of Religion der Rice Uni- versity in Virginia betont in einer Publikation aus dem Jahr 2008 ebenfalls, dass die grosse Vielfalt in Tibet es unmöglich macht, Generalisierungen zu ganz Tibet zu 1 Entsprechend den COI-Standards verwendet die SFH öffentlich zugängliche Quellen.
